Weekly Clean Energy Roundup

In case you missed it—CleanChoice Energy is providing New York City apartment dwellers with renewable energy through our Community Solar program! Community Solar programs like ours allow renters and homeowners who don’t, or can’t, have solar panels on their roofs participate in solar power. “I’m expecting solar power will be a main energy source for many communities in the future,” one member of our program says, “so joining a community solar group is my vote for that.” Learn more about our Community Solar programs and see if there’s one available in your area.

Looking for sustainable food made with renewable energy? This solar-powered, Vermont-based food truck is the answer! The Vizavi (a play on the French phrase vis-à-vis, meaning in relation to) Solar Food Cart serves locally sourced food that’s prepared using the energy generated by the solar panels attached to the cart’s roof. “I wanted to increase awareness about local and sustainable food and give people a place to hang out,” said Justin Bristol, one of the co-founders of the business. For now, the cart is based in Vermont, but they hope to start travelling and bringing their delicious food to other areas of the country.

Check back at the end of next week for more clean energy industry updates!
